Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups cooked grilled chicken breasts, chopped (seasoned with your favorite spices, see note*)
- 1/4 cup Hidden Valley® Simply Ranch dressing
- 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup cilantro, minced (optional)
- 4 (8-inch) tortillas
Instructions
- Prepare Your Tortillas: Lay the tortillas on a clean, flat surface. This is your base for building the wraps.
- Add the Chicken: On each tortilla, place about 1/2 cup of chopped grilled chicken. Ensure the chicken is evenly distributed for a consistent bite in every mouthful.
- Drizzle the Ranch: Add 1 tablespoon of ranch dressing over the chicken on each tortilla. The ranch dressing adds a creamy texture and a burst of flavor.
- Sprinkle the Cheese: Next, sprinkle 2 tablespoons of mozzarella cheese over the chicken and ranch. As the wraps cook, the cheese will melt, adding a delicious gooeyness.
- Add Cilantro: If you like a fresh, herby taste, add 1 tablespoon of minced cilantro to each tortilla. It’s optional but highly recommended.
- Wrap It Up: Fold the tortillas tightly to form a burrito shape. Make sure the edges are tucked in well to prevent the filling from spilling out during cooking.
- Cook the Wraps: Heat a heavy-duty pan or grill over medium heat. Lightly coat it with oil or cooking spray. Place the wraps in the pan and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side or until the tortilla is crispy and golden brown.
- Serve: Remove the wraps from the heat, slice them in half, and serve immediately.
Notes
- Crispy Tortillas: For extra crispiness, you can brush a little melted butter on the outside of the tortillas before grilling.
- Customizing the Fillings: Feel free to add other ingredients like avocado, lettuce, or even a slice of tomato for a fresh twist.
- Spice It Up: If you like a bit of heat, consider adding some chopped jalapeños or a drizzle of hot sauce before wrapping.
